4 Things That Must Be Done For One To Excel

4 Things that must be done for one to excel.
In this session I’ll be talking about, 4 things that must be done for one to excel.

Most people struggle with this everyday and for you to be reading this to this very moment means that you desire change in your life and after reading this you will definitely see changes in your life.

1. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THINKING AND BELIEVE

Thoughts makes you to picture that action if it can be done or not and for one’s thought to be channelled towards taking action base on what your mind has pictured, one must have a positive mind.

You must believe that all things is possible and that you can do it.

Once you Have believed that you can do it, immediately you find yourself doing it with ease because both your concious and subconscious mind is in agreement.

Don’t say I think i can do it but rather say i believe i can do it.

2. DON’T LIE TO YOURSELF

Most people lie to themselves subconciously because the have built a habit that’s always going to be used as a self defense even if the truth is been revealed to them.

For instance, most people settling for less in life and when asked they will reply you with I don’t have much of a choice meanwhile there’s a million opportunities everywhere but they allowed there environment upbringing to rub off on them.

While some will be given the opportunity be will end up rejecting saying i have to be perfect. All these are lies one tells to him/herself.

3. BE THE DRIVER OF YOUR LIFE NOT A PASSENGER

What this simply means that you should be in charge, be in control of your life.

What’s it you want to do?

What’s that thing that you must accomplish on earth that if not done you know that your life on earth wasn’t a fulfilled one?

Where do you want to go?

What do you want your life to be like?

If you can answer all this very well and pen your answers down then you are in control of your life.

Being a passenger is doing the things passengers in a moving vehicle does which is exploring the views around them, not focused on where they are going to, always waiting for when the driver to take them to where they want to.

It simply means you living a purposeless life, not having what to do with your time, not knowing what next to do because your don’t have any activities, you just sitting, and whining away your time and in some cases they let external factors determine who you are and where you want to go.

4. DON’T FALL FOR THE TALENT GAME

Being talented don’t mean all it’s well neither does it mean that you are perfect at what you do nor will definitely reach your goals. Talent without curiosity and obsession will keep you moving at a slow pace compared to one who is talented and builds in curiosity and obsession to it.

For instance on who is talented and only relies on his/her talent will only be moving at Arithmetic progression while the talented fellow with curiosity and obsession flies on geometrical progression.

8 Forms of Attitude that works

8 forms of attitude that works

Wheresoever you get to find yourself today is the resultant of your attitude.

Attitude has a very important role to play in your life than Action because it’s with this right attitude you will be able to act right at every phase you find yourself in.

In this session, we will be talking about the 8 forms of attitude that works.

• Attitude Of Affection.

This is the first form of attitude most people get to experience, to some it’s positive while to some it’s negative.

It’s an attitude that give one the ability to express one’s feelings, this we mostly pick it up from home i believe you have heard of this saying which says “charity begins at home”.

This attitude enables you to care for something or someone. This form attitude most be done out of love for love conquers all and without love it all turns out to be deceptive which the person out there could easily see. So it’s an attitude expressed to others out of love

• Attitude Of Royalty

This is an attitude expressed to oneself.

With this form of attitude you will be fearless and a fear factor to people out there because you are acting base on the knowledge of who you are and you being aware of the powers within you.

This sense of attitude can only be expressed by a person who has a clear imagine of his/herself.

• Attitude Of Responsibility

With this sense of attitude you will end up being a doer. Attitude of responsibility gives you the right sense to be in charge of your life and act accordingly.

People who lacks this sense of responsibility always waste there time on complains, wishes, laying blames on everything around them, gossiping about others and there lifestyle, thinking and hoping for things to get better, forgetting that things will only get better, if you act according to what you desire. So attitude of responsibility keeps nobody else in charge but you.

• Attitude Of Consistency

The major reason why most people in life haven’t break forth is because they ain’t consistent on what they are doing or they are being consistent on what’s not going to be profiting to them.

The attitude of consistency enables you to build on the basic knowledge of what you desire for instance you what to be a great keyboardist, all you have to do is be consistent on practicing with the keyboard and you will be great.

Attitude of consistency takes nothing much but discipline, making sure that you’re able to get it done every single day and by so doing it turns out to be a habit built.

7 ways on how to deal with procrastination

Stop thinking that procrastination means resting for the mean time and that you’ll end up doing it later and see procrastination as a thief who comes to rob you of your precious time that should be used for something far better.

Once you procrastinated, you end up not being in charge of your future. Below are the 7 ways on how to deal with procrastination

• CREATE POSITIVE HABITS. 

In other to create a positive habit you have got to find that spark for example something that gets to motivate you then you work on that motivation, mind you that motive have got to be a positive one. Through motivation will you be able to create that habit.

An illustration on how habits are created.

You have got a car, and you bought that car to save your time, and ease of movement.

Now you have got the car but you can’t drive so you have really need to learn how to ride a car. (From here your motivation is towards learning how to ride a car is because you own one) while learning, that’s motivation put into action and the more time to spend driving the more your mind and body adapt towards that action (driving) and they more you body and minds are being bonded into that action the stronger that habit of driving is being formed that way you need not to guess what step to take or what to do because it’s so clear to you on what processes you should take.

So you create habits through reputation and your get go is to find what motivates you.

So Habits makes life 10x easier.

• HAVE A VIVID PLAN.

Making out plans doesn’t necessarily means plans on what you want, making out plans is all about planning on how to achieve it, how to get it done because without knowing how tp achieve it you will definitely fail cause that’s the only chance you have.

You plan should be properly outlined that way you will be able to know what step you need to take that will lead to the other step.

• KILL EVERY NEGATIVE SELF TALK.

Don’t you ever talk down on yourself. Why talk down on yourself if you sure know that you wouldn’t dare such to your folks out there?

Have a written note or declaration about yourself, words written on this notes should be everything positive you have ever wished for. Read this positive note about yourself whenever negative self talk comes into your mind by so doing your mind will be rewired into thinking and saying positive things about yourself and you will likely see them manifest.

• FUEL YOUR BODY.

Ensure your body is well nourished with the right set of meal so as to keep your body and mind in harmony.

• AVOID EXCUSES.

The only way to avoid excuses is by responsible for that situation that you find yourself in, that’s only how you can be the boss of your own life aside that isn’t living.

Ensure you also surround yourself with people who don’t go about making lame excuses of what life gave to them.

make it known to negative people around you that you feel so uncomfortable towards there behavior and ditch them if they continue acting that way towards you after several warning. Make the most out of your life.

• HAVE AND WRITE ON A JOURNAL.

Ensure you have a journal and always pen down every idea or thought that flows into your mind that way you have eased off that thought and focus on another.

A journal keeps you focused, helps you store good memories, thoughts and also aids you towards having a good plan on what action you need to take.

• CHANGE YOUR MINDSET.

A task becomes so much easier to accomplish once your perspective towards it has changed.

For an instance you saying “i might be there at choir rehearsals today” instead change your thinking towards ” i will be there at choir rehearsals today”

Now you can see the difference in this two sentences.

Having read all the 7 ways on how to deal with procrastination, i hope you practice them.

Phases of Menstrual cycle and Fertilization.

Phases of Menstrual cycle and Fertilization.

 

Phases of Menstrual cycle and Fertilization.

 

Importance of fertilization.

(a) It acts as a stimulant for the egg to finish maturing.

(b) Through recurrent mitotic division, it stimulates the ovum to grow into a new person.

(c) Fertilization restores the zygote’s diploid number of chromosomes (46 in man) by adding the haploid set of chromosomes from the male.

(d) It increases the metabolic activity of the egg.

 

(e) It mixes the personalities of two parents while introducing new elements. As a result, contribute to evolution.

(f) Sperm sex chromosomes are either X or Y, which aids in sex determination.

(g) Fertilization membrane, produced after sperm entry, prevents new sperm from entering.

(h) The axis of division is set by the copulation path.

 

Cycle of Menstruation

(1) Humans, apes, and old world monkeys all have menstrual periods.

(2) Menstruation is the bleeding of adult females’ uteruses at one lunar month intervals.

(3) Menarche is the start of menstruation or the first (1st) period.

(4) The start of menstruation differs from person to person. It usually happens between the ages of 12 and 15.

 

(5) The Menstrual Cycle is the sequence of events that occurs from one menstruation to the next.

(6) In human females, menstruation occurs every 28/29 days on average.

(7) During the midst of each menstrual cycle, one ovum is discharged (ovulation).

(8) Certain hormones, some of which are released by the pituitary gland, regulate it.

(9) releasing factors produced in the hypothalamus stimulate the pituitary gland.

(10) The pituitary gland’s hormones have an effect on the ovaries. The ovaries’ hormones have an effect on the uterus’s walls.

 

Menstrual Cycle Phases

The menstrual cycle is being grouped into four phases:

 

(1st Phase ) The Menstrual Cycle:

(i) Menstruation occurs on days 3-5 of a 28-day menstrual cycle.

(ii) LH production from the pituitary gland’s anterior lobe is diminished.

(iii) The corpus luteum degenerates when this hormone is absence, resulting in a reduction in progestrone synthesis.

(iv) Oestrogen production is also lowered during this time.

(v) The uterine endometrium breaks down, and menstruation begins.

 

The menstrual flow is made up of cells from the endometrium, blood, and unfertilised ovum.

 

(2nd Phase ) Follicular Phase:

 

(i) In a 28-day cycle, this phase normally comprises cycle days 6-13 or 14.

(ii) The anterior lobe of the pituitary gland secretes follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), which stimulates the ovarian follicle to secrete oestrogens.

(iii) Oestrogen causes the endometrium of the uterine wall to proliferate.

(iv) Rapid cell proliferation thickens the endometrium, which is accompanied by an increase in uterine glands and blood vessels.

 

(3rd Phase ) Ovulatory Phase: 

(i) In the middle of the cycle, both Luteinizing hormone (LH) and Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) reach their highest levels (about 14th day).

(ii) The amount of oestrogen in the blood increases.

(iii) There is a great secretion of Luteinizing hormone (LH) which causes graffian follicle rupturing and, as a result, leads to ovum discharge.

(iv) Luteinizing hormone does, in fact, cause ovulation.

 

Luteal Phase (4th Phase ):

(I) Cycle days 15 to 28 are included.

(ii) Progestrone is secreted by the corpus luteum.

(iii) The endometrium thickens .

(iv) The uterine glands begin to secrete.

 

Menstrual Cycle Hormonal Control

(i) Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) increases the production of oestrogens by ovarian follicles.

(ii) Luteinizing hormone (LH) promotes progestrone secretion in the corpus luteum.

(iii) The increased synthesis of oestrogens causes the menstrual phase.

(iv) Luteinizing hormone (LH) is responsible for ovulation.

 

(v) The increased production of oestrogens causes the proliferative phase.

(vi) The secretory phase is brought on by a rise in progestrone production.

The advantages Blood Group Testing

The advantages Blood Group Testing

The advantages Blood Group Testing

Introduction

Knowing your blood group helps to prevent a while lot of crisis in the future which includes not having a sickle celled child and other factors too.

In this session I’ll be talking about the advantages Blood Group Testing, and what’s gonna result to if ignored.

The blood is divided into groups based on the presence and lack of antibodies.

In addition, the presence and absence of hereditary antigenic compounds are taken into account while classifying.

Blood group types are inherited and reflect both the father and the mother’s contributions.

 

ABO Blood Group System

The ABO Blood Group System is a system for identifying blood groups.

Because any person over the age of 6 months has clinically significant anti-A and/or anti-B antibodies in their serum, ABO remains the most important in transfusion and transplantation.

 

Antigens and Antibodies

Antigens and antibodies are typically found in human blood.

There are two types of Antigens which happens to be Antigen A and antigen B.

There are also two types of antibodies which are Antibody A and Antibody B.

These Antigens will only be found in red blood cells, while antibodies will also only be found in white blood cells.

 

All humans can be grouped into one of three blood groups based on their antigen properties:

1. Blood Group A antigen A and antibody B

2. Antigen B and antibody A in blood group B

3. Antigen A and antigen B are present in blood group AB, but no antibody is present. 4. Blood Group O has no antigen but does have antigen A and antibody B.

When it comes to transfusions of human blood, the ABO system must be taken into account.

Karl Landsteiner was the first to discover the ABO blood group systems in 1901.

 

System of Blood Groups (Rh)

The presence or absence of the Rh antigen, also known as the Rh factor, on the cell membranes of red blood cells is used to identify blood groups (erythrocytes).

 

One is said to be Rhesus (Rh) factor positive if a certain protein is been found at the surface of your blood cells. If your Rhesus (Rh) factor test is negative it simply means the absence of this Protein.

 

Another important blood-group system is the Rh system (the meaning of Rh is Rhesus). When receiving blood transfusions, it is critical to match the Rh system.

Rh antigen was first discovered in Rhesus monkeys, hence the name Rh factor/system.

Rh negative (Rh-ve) refers to someone who does not have Rh antigen, while Rh positive (Rh+ve) refers to someone who has.

 

Rh positive happens to be the most common in the World. Having a Rh negative blood type is not a disease, and it usually has no negative consequences for your health. If you’re Rh negative and your kid is Rh positive, you’ll need to take extra precautions during your pregnancy (Rh incompatibility).

 

Note: Either parents can contribute to the Rh factor there child with end up having.(could be positive or Negative). Below we’ll talk about.

The Importance of Blood Group Testing

 

The significance of the RH Blood Group test.

 

• If both the mother and father’s Rh factors are positive, the child’s Rh factor will also be positive, thus no precautions are necessary.

• If both the mother and father’s Rh factors are negative, the child’s Rh factor will also be negative, thus no precautions are necessary.

• If the mother’s Rh factor is positive but the father’s is negative, the child’s Rh factor might be positive or negative, therefore no precautions are necessary.

• If the Rh factor of the mother is negative and the Rh factor of the father is positive, the child may be at risk.

 

• If the mother’s Rh factor is negative and the father’s Rh factor is positive, the infant could be Rh positive or Rh negative, necessitating the administration of Rh immune globulin ( The immune globulin prevents your body from producing Rh antibodies during your pregnancy.) Then if your child happens to be Rh positive, you’ll need to get injected again with “antiD” soon after the child’s birth to stop the mother’s blood cells from developing antibodies that will attack the red cells of a Rhesus positive kid in the future. Nothing happens if a baby is born Rh Negative.

 

If it’s her initial pregnancy there is no cause for alarm. This is because the child’s blood does not normally get to be mixed with that of the mother during pregnancy; Although, At the course of childbirth, the child and the mother’s blood will definitely mix, and the mother’s body will immediately begin to produce Rh antibodies because the Rh protein from the child is perceived as a foreign substance, which is where Anti- D comes into play.

 

Resultant of Rheus Rh factor Mismatch.

If the blood of a Rh negative mother comes into contact with the blood of a Rh positive foetal during pregnancy, it can result in:

 

• Difficulty in child birth

• Miscarriage

• Abortion

• Ectopic pregnancy: This occurs when a fertilized egg implants outside the uterus, generally in a fallopian tube.

• Trauma to the abdomen during pregnancy.

• A molar pregnancy: This is a noncancerous tumour that develops in the uterus that must be removed.

All what you have read it’s the importance of blood group testing.

Volumes and Capacities of the Pulmonary System

0
Volumes and Capacities of the Pulmonary System

Volumes and Capacities of the Pulmonary System

Respiratory volume are as follows:

 

(I) Tidal volume (TV)

It’s simply referred to as regular breathing when no force or pressure is applied.

This is the amount of air that is frequently breathed or expelled in a single breath without expending extra effort or the volume of air that is normally inspired or expired.

For instance, as you read this great post, you are involuntarily inhaling and exhaling air without exerting any force. Another time is when you’re asleep.

 

It’s 500 ml in a healthy adult, 15 ml in newborns, and 0 ml in foetuses.

 

(ii) Inspiratory reserve volume (IRV): 

After tidal volume has happened, this is the additional air forced by inspiration.

For example, after finishing a 100-meter race, you tend to forcibly inhale air (more like taking a deep breath) into your lungs, inhaling more than 500ml of the normal tidal volume that most adults do.

IRV stands for excess inhaled air and ranges from 2500 to 3100 ml.

 

(iii) Expiratory reserve volume (ERV)

In addition to the 500 ml of air inhaled, one can push out 1100 ml of air.

Expiratory reserve volume refers to the additional air that can be exhaled through voluntary or involuntary application of pressure.

For example, one might exhale more than 500ml of normal Tidal volume of air to apply pressure to his or her clogged nose, which is interfering with normal breathing (tidal volume) Note that in circumstances like cardiac arrest or heart attack, this might happen involuntarily. (1000–1100 mL, with forcible expiration providing more air).

 

(iv) Reserve volume (RV)

Having forcefully exhaled air ( Expiratory reserve volume) which definitely will exceed 500ml, the total amount of air Reserved in the lungs is known as RESERVE VOLUME/RESIDUAL VOLUME. 

After a vigorous expiration, there is still a significant amount of air in the lungs. Spirometry cannot be used to determine this.

Furthermore, after violent expiration, approximately 1100 to 1200 ml of air remains in the lungs.

The following are the respiratory capacities:

(i) Total Lung capacity (TLC)

In order to figure out how much air you can take in, you’ll need to know your overall lung capacity.

Except for Reserve Volume (RV), which must be known and measured using a spirometer, all four lung volumes must be known and measured using a spirometer.

 

If the Tidal Volume (TV) is 500ml, the Inspiratory Reserved Volume should be the average of 2500-3100, as previously indicated, leaving us with 2800, with Expiratory Reserved Volume being 1100 and Reserved Volume being about 1200.

As a result, TLC equals TV + IRV + ERV + RV.

500+2800+1100+1200= 5600 TLC

The total lung capacity (TLC) is then estimated to be around 5600~5800.

(ii) Inspiratory Capacity (IC), i.e. TV + IRV

The outcome of combining inspiratory reserve volume with tidal volume is the result (IC).

It’s the entire amount of air a person can inhale with his lungs stretched to their greatest capacity.

The volume of I.C is said to be between 3300 and 3500ml.

(iii) Expiratory Capacity (EC), i.e. TV + ERV 

The sum of the Expiratory reserve volume and tidal volume results is the total volume (EC).

E.C is said to range between 1600 to 1800 ml.

(iv) Functional residual capacity (FRC):

Simply add the Expiratory reserve volume (ERV) to the Reserved volume (RV) to get the functional residual capacity (ERV + RV).

It’s simply the amount of air left in the lungs after normal expiration, which is estimated to be around 2300ml.

(v) Vital capacity (VC):

Simply add the Expiratory Reserve Volume to the Inspiratory Reserve Volume to the Tidal Volume (IRV + ERV + TV) to determine this.

It’s also the greatest amount of air that may be inhaled or exhaled after forced expiration or inspiration, which is around 4400-4600ml.

THE 5 PRIMARY DIFFICULTIES WE AFRICANS FACE

0
THE 5 PRIMARY DIFFICULTIES WE AFRICANS FACE.

THE 5 PRIMARY DIFFICULTIES WE AFRICANS FACE.

Because Africa is mostly made up of developing countries, issues take many forms, all of which are tied to our current situation.

 

KNOWLEDGE.

One of, the 5 primary difficulties we Africans face, is that we african men dislike information.

They don’t have knowledge in terms of reading, obtaining skills, and improving yourself, and I’m not sure why. For example, I spent time writing this essay so that my fellow Africans may read it and have a beneficial impact on their attitude. However, instead of reading it, they will mock it and dismiss it as a waste of time.

They’re merely being lazy in the most recent generation. Some lazy Africans will throw fingers at the leadership, and while they have their own share of blame, you must seek information, and with knowledge comes power and influence.

 

HISTORICAL KNOWLEDGE IS LIMITED.

Most Africans are unaware of their own history; they do not sit down and study it, and why should they? Because they find it more difficult to open a book than to turn on their phones. If we could just sit down and examine our history, we might be able to come up with a quick cure for the present and future.

Spend more time and read more to gain a better understanding of their own history, such as the history of my country, the history of my hometown, and the history of my parents. With this knowledge of our history, we will be able to better understand how to deal with the problems we are currently facing, as all of these are linked as a trait.

 

LEADERSHIP.

For African countries, one of the most important factors is leadership.

The way people regard leadership in Africa is both shocking and horrifying; they see it as a way to enrich yourself, as a method to loot from others, as a way to display your superiority, to exercise your power, and for some, it’s the fame that motivates them to pursue leadership and when they get there, they do anything they want.

They don’t grasp the importance of sacrifices in leadership, or the importance of passion, pleasure, and dedication to the people they have promised to guide and lead.

 

GREED AND INAPPROPRIATE PLANNING

As the majority of people say, “Black man and himself.” They are just concerned with themselves, and Africans are only concerned with the present, not the future; all they want to do now is satisfy their immediate needs.

You see them giving you the I’m fine right now attitude, content with their current situation; it’s all about the now, but they don’t realize that in the next five to ten years, things will be different.

Evolution will undoubtedly occur, and this is why white men are more capable than us because they plan for the future. A white man projects his future, his finances, and his family, which is why you see them with good pension packages when they retire.

However, Africans cannot project their future, they are always satisfied with the now, and that is the most painful part, so perceptions of longevity and prosperity in Africa do not exist, and this is what has been passed down from generation to generation.

 

 INDUSTRIALISATION

Another concern is a lack of industry, which leads to increased unemployment among known people. As a result, unemployment is a major issue throughout Africa as a whole. People go to school, and if there is no work at the end of the day, many will sit down, unemployed, and become a liability.

Most African countries have a high dependency ratio, and their national production isn’t anything to write home about, owing to bad leadership that doesn’t think about how to maximize the country’s resources and grow its economy. If Africa’s economy becomes more industrialized, it will be able to reduce unemployment and attract more investors.

4 QUALITIES YOU’LL FIND FROM YOUR INNER CIRCLE

4 QUALITIES YOU’LL FIND FROM YOUR INNER CIRCLE.

WHAT’S INNER CIRCLE? 

To me, the inner circle consists of the individuals you can confide in and fight alongside, as well as the people in your life who are your most important support system and source of inspiration.

 

You will find that your inner circle is far more powerful than you previously believed. When things truly become rough, when you hit rock bottom, and when you finally burn out, you know this. When your closest friends and family members notice this, they will step up and provide a hand so that you can stand with them. When you silently call on them, they will come to you.

NOTE: your outcomes are affected by your circle.

 

4 QUALITIES YOU’LL FIND FROM YOUR INNER CIRCLE.

You’ll find these qualities in folks you refer to as your inner circle. If any of these attributes are missing from the people you consider your inner circle then you have got it all wrong they are just there to pass time with you.

 

They tend to be Optimistic.

They always want the best from you and at the same time are supportive of your aims and objectives, always seeking to get the best out of you and you doing the same to them, whether it’s business, ideas, or anything else. You’ll find yourself constantly engaged in fruitful discussion; it’s all about the big talks, not the tiny ones; you and your partner can spend hours rubbing brains and tying up loose ends only to come up with a fantastic outcome on that.

 

They are Visionaries.

There are those who can see us and assist us in seeing ourselves more clearly.

It’s more crucial than it appears to have someone who can see your Invisibles. We are unable to see who we are for ourselves. In any case, not in its whole. It’d be like asking a puzzle piece to describe itself. Alternatively, look at a diamond to view all of its facets. Having a buddy (or friends) say, “This seems to be what you care about,” or “This feels like it’s building on past events,” provides you a new perspective on your own interests and through lines.

 

Loyalty.

Who you are becoming, not who you have been. Deep support is being with people who can look beyond your current role, work, or project. What matters is not what you’ve done or are doing, but who you are and will become. It is the individual who can truly declare, “I believe in you,” even if circumstances change, who provides a safe space to explore new ideas. This strong support is what allows you to take risks, which is necessary for any period of personal or professional development. I have a friend with whom I routinely text to process how to think about things as they happen.

 

They are highly Supportive

This is the person who acknowledges the process rather than the end result; the person who recognises how hard you worked on something and says, “Hey there, congrats on realising your life’s ambition; I’m ecstatic for you.” They are very interested in your strategy or idea, and will work hard to ensure that you develop it.” And witnessing how far you’ve come fills their hearts with joy. They celebrate you to the fullest without expecting anything in return; all they want in life is for you to succeed since success offers them more joy.

There are 5 drawbacks to spending time alone.

 

We’ll now look at the disadvantages of having alone time now that we’ve looked at the benefits.the benefits. In this instance, things go from good to terrible because one prefers to enter this activity without a purpose, transforming alone time into loneliness.

There are 5 drawbacks to spending time alone

Loneliness Can Be Excruciating When You’re Alone

It’s critical to distinguish between time spent alone cheerfully and time spent alone because you’re lonely. Loneliness is defined as “perceived social isolation,” or “the gap between what you want from your social ties and how you experience them.” Feeling lonely can make us feel unloved or unlikeable, which might make us turn on ourselves.

So there’s a distinction to be made between being alone and being lonely. And, as you might expect, too much of the former can start to resemble the latter. It’s critical to distinguish between the amount of time you spend alone and your feelings about that time. Loneliness can cause not only emotional but also bodily distress. As a result, make every effort to communicate with friends and loved ones.

You Can Become Lethargic When You’re Alone

You’ve probably heard the phrase “don’t let your thoughts go soft.” Idleness, on the other hand, can have the same effect. Of course, not literally, but it is critical that you engage with a things that’s going to feed your mind positively, or any other logic-based work on a regular basis to keep your mind sharp and active at all time.

It’s Possible That Being Alone Is Harmful to Our Health.

According to research, over 30% of lonely persons worldwide commit suicide because they have lost their mental health and believe that living is meaningless.

Our physical health suffers when we spend too much time alone. “Being socially linked has a large and positive impact not only on psychological and emotional well-being, but also on physical well-being and overall longevity.” Even if you prefer to spend the majority of your time alone, it is critical to maintain strong social connections.

Depression Can Be Caused by Being Alone or Lonely.

Loneliness and time spent alone might lead to depression. Loneliness and depression have been linked for a long time.

Too much solitude produces mental swings, causing sufferers to have a negative perception of the world around them.

When people are lonely, their neurological responses to good images and events are repressed, and they are more prone to assume things are hopeless. This makes finding the energy and bravery to discover happiness and change more challenging.

If you’re feeling lonely and think you could be depressed, find someone with whom you can have a chat.

We are more vulnerable to our inner critics when we are alone.

When you’re lonely, you may hear a negative voice ready to explain why you’re lonely. We have surrendered our self-confidence and are willing to accept any negative voice that crawls into our heads as a result of doing so.

It’s not always a good idea to be alone with our thoughts. Isolation can be the ideal environment for negative, self-critical ideas to flourish. We all have an inner critic, a terrible critic who lives inside our thoughts and is always looking for ways to condemn us. When we are left alone with our thoughts, these “critical inner voices” tend to increase. When we are not just alone, but also lonely, the “critical inner voices” tend to be at their worst. The inner critic tells us that something is wrong with us and that we don’t belong with other people at these times. We are, in this sense, our own worst enemies.

As a result, it’s crucial to distinguish between productive, creative, and introspective time alone vs self-critical or lonely time alone.

Some people require alone time to settle down and make effective use of it, while others enjoy it because it fits their personality, while some simply allow their personal time eat them up and end up crawling into darkness.

 

The 4 major Pros of having an alone time

 

Here we will talk about how to make maximum output from alone time as a form of self care. Mind you when not used properly that’s where the cons of having an alone time comes to play.

 

Spending alone time can help you be more productive and creative.

 

Being with people reduces productivity since you are influenced by their attitudes and problems. You’ll either find yourself bothered by that friend’s notion or you’ll spend the most of your time talking about unrelated topics.When you’re spending some alone time.

sitting down and coming up with ideas on one’s own is frequently the most successful method. By turning off the outside noises, you can get more in tune with your thoughts, allowing your mind to roam while also allowing your creative juices to flow. As a result, when people enjoy a little solitude, they do better.

 

Time alone allows our brains to recharge.

 

Socializing will always be good for proper brain function since it is critical to maintain strong interpersonal connections, yet shutting your brain down on occasion can be useful, and seclusion can be just as necessary. Studies have connected the ability to tolerate alone time to higher levels of pleasure, life satisfaction, and stress management. People who spend time alone are less depressed. So it’s all about finding the right balance. You can cleanse your mind and start thinking more clearly in an empty environment with no distractions. Just remember to eat healthy and get enough of rest during the process.

 

Empathy grows when you spend time alone.

 

You acquire a “we vs. them” mentality when you spend time with a specific group of friends or coworkers. Spending time alone allows you to build compassion for others who do not belong in your ‘inner circle.‘

Time away from our friends and that relationship, believe it or not, can be beneficial. Separating allows you to reclaim a sense of independence that you may not have had in years, while also establishing a better sense of appreciation for our significant other. It feels good to be missing people.

 

You can rediscover yourself by spending time alone.

 

You’re lost out there with your friends, and everyone keeps asking, “Who the hell are you?” (Like, do you truly know yourself because we haven’t seen the real you in a long time?).

All of this is due to your inability to spend time alone; you are constantly surrounded by your pals, seeking their advice on what to do and what not to do, as well as what to wear and what not to wear. Don’t get me wrong, soliciting a friend’s opinion is a sign of trust and bonding, but when you do it regularly, you lose confidence in yourself, and your buddy begins to question who you are and your worth in their life.

Being alone allows you to feel more at ease in your own skin. When you’re alone, you can make decisions without being influenced by others. And this will help you have a better understanding of who you are as a person.

Allow yourself a few minutes each day to be alone with your thoughts – even 10 minutes a day might be beneficial. Turn off all of your technology and take a few minutes to ponder. It can be unsettling at first if you aren’t used to spending time alone. However, carving out that time for yourself may be crucial to become the best version of yourself.
